I type up all my Slashdot replies first on my trusty old "underwood five" typewriter, then put it in an envelope, address it, add a stamp, and send it off to Mabel, my secretary, who has one of them newfangled Western Union Telex machines. She types my text in and instantly transmits it to Bob, my next-door neighbour, who has one of them wizzy new eye-BM PeeCees and he puts it on the Intarweb site "Slashdot"

So I don't know what all they strange keys are that you're talking about.

Signed, Thomas via Bob via Mabel
